BALTIMORE, MD, Sept. I.-Yice-

posai of the plant Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Express Company, and OF the exc.
cu5ion OF the contract between the rail-
road company aud the CaI.ed States
Express Company for 6 period of thirty
years, but declines 10 give any further
particulars. He, however, regarded the
arrangements as quite advantageous TO
the interest CT the railroad company
and express company. MIR Spencer stated
that there Vas no truth whatever in
the statements as TO the negotiations with
London bankers for the control Of the
railroad company or that the house of
Robert Carrot, & Sons was selling or in
tending TO sell its holdings, and he knew
of no such intention on The part of any
other large holder. He treated ss absurd
the statement that the Pennsylvania Rsil-
road had advanced or w&s advancing any
money TO the Baltimore and
OHIO Company, looking to its
control or for shy other purpose
| The contract of the company had not and
would not pass into any rival hands. It
would continue as sn Independent trunk

NEW YORK, Sept. I.-SpeakiDg Of the

press COmpsny Senator 7 c. Plat, pres
ident Of the United States Ex0ress Com
pany, said: eve have bought the Balti-
more end Ohio Express ComHany with its
plant and ell i;s privileges. franchises
and contracts with otheriis aperiOd
of thirty years. Negotiations Tor the sa.e
were begun by Robert Garrett and
by myself shortly before Mr.. Garrett
sailed for Europe. The sale was made 8
few days ago. Samuel Spencer, vice
president Of the Baltimore and Ohio, acted
for the express company. ! must de-
cline to say what price was paid That
is entirely private matter We take
possession Tomorrow and shall run ii
under the present management and the
present names. The terms Of the pur-
chase as rumorud on the street are not at
all correct. Vice-President Spencer
of the Baltimore and Ohio said,
in discussing the mater, "au there is
to it is that we decided to 90 out of the
express business, and decided 20 sell to
the United States Express Company, be
cause that company has more stations on
or near our roads than any other company,
and thus our railroad will profit most by
their business.
Wall street vas inclined to Jump to the
conclusion that other Of the Baltimore
aud Ohio properties mad been sold, espe-
cially the telegraph company, but no con
hrmeti0n Of these views could be OBJ

"The general belief is that all necessary

so it is said, but at the annual meeting OF

Mr.. Garrett will hand in his resignation
